Reno is a world-class tourist destination with a rich arts scene and year-round outdoor activities. Our community has something for everyone inside its 100 square miles (and we're a mere 45 minutes away from Lake Tahoe and some of the country's best ski resorts.)
The Biggest Little City in the World rests at a comfortable 4,400 feet above sea level, and gets over 300 sunny days each year. We get about 12 inches of precipitation annually, with lots of snow falling at the 15 easily-accessible ski resorts in the Lake Tahoe area.
